25 Most Hotly Anticipated New TV Shows Of 2018

13. One Strange Rock

One Strange Rock
Nat Geo

Who? Darren Aronofsky, Will Smith.

What? The extraordinary story of Earth and what makes it so special, filmed across 45 countries, 6 continents, and outer space, hosted by Smith and directed by Aronofsky.

Why? Admittedly this would be much higher if David Attenborough were narrating, this is still a bold venture from Nat Geo. BBC's Planet Earth was an incredible look at our planet's wildlife, and this will be an even deeper look at the rock we live in. Smith is charismatic enough to carry it, backed by an expert team of scientists and an elite group of astronauts, providing a singular insight into the Earth - and it should look stunning too.

When & Where? TBC, National Geographic.
